State Requirements
Oklahoma requires minimum liability coverage of $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident for bodily injury, plus $25,000 for property damage. Drivers convicted of DUI, driving without insurance, causing an uninsured accident with injuries, or accumulating too many points face SR-22 filing requirements that last 3 years. The state uses a point system where 10 points in 5 years triggers license suspension, and the Department of Public Safety monitors compliance through electronic filing. Drivers with violations pay substantially higher premiums than the state average, making carrier selection critical.

High-risk drivers in Oklahoma pay $2,200–$4,500 annually for full coverage compared to $1,400–$2,100 for clean records, based on available industry data. DUI convictions trigger the largest increases at 80–150%, while speeding violations and at-fault accidents raise rates 20–40%.
